Commonly known as the 'oscars' of the UK house-building industry, the WhatHouse? Awards is the country’s largest event that celebrates the very best new homes. Attracting many of the biggest names in house-building, the WhatHouse? Awards Gala Luncheon takes place at the Grosvenor House Hotel on Park Lane in London every November, with more than 1,600 people attending, and winners being announced in a wide range of categories.

There’s a top-class celebrity hosting the event, including Lord Hague, David Walliams and Rob Brydon headlining in the last few years. The WhatHouse? Awards 2017 – the 36th year of the event – were especially entertaining, presented jointly by comedian Jack Whitehall and former England rugby captain Lawrence Dallaglio.

With categories covering every aspect of new homes, developments and their builders, from Best Starter Home Scheme to Best Luxury Home. Best Small, Medium and Large Housebuilders are named before the most coveted title of all – Housebuilder of the Year, currently held by The Berkeley Group.
